Plastic roofs are not practical here, we get too many storms with large hail. Sometimes it reaches tennis ball size but not often. Even the golf ball size stuff will punch a hole neatly through the plastic roofing.

Mine is covered with the old fashioned corrugated roofing, like you see in the movies about Australia where they make entire houses from the stuff. No need to worry about sparks from the fire or heat.

In fact, I was out there last evening cooking my supper while a thunderstorm shook the world, lightening flashing, rain bucketing down. The wood stove also makes a nice platform for my hibachi.
